Tonight we've left our usual home at Studio 6 for a field trip to Brigham Young University's Museum of Art! The Island homes of Ireland, Scotland and England have given us music both sublime and silly, enthralling and thoroughly entertaining. In an intimate concert setting with an audience made up of sustaining members of Classical 89, we showcase this music performed by musicians of all kinds.
